Integrating with ME v1.12.x

Introduction

Check out the EJS Introduction.

Locating EJS in ME

The ElentraJS environment is located in the www-root/javascript/entradajs directory. This directory contains the ElentraJS library, the Layout namespace, and the Module namespace.

Configuring EJS in ME

The ElentraJS environment configuration file is located at www-root/javascript/entradajs/environment.js. All new modules must be added to this file to make them available in the system.

Booting EJS in ME

Booting is handled automatically on any page within Elentra that includes an entry point.

EJS Modules in ME

A module in EJS is a self-contained package of functionality, containing all relevant code and assets. Modules can be found in the www-root/javascript/entradajs/Module directory.

EJS Layouts in ME

A layout is a component that wraps module content in EJS. Layouts can be found in the www-root/javascript/entradajs/Layout directory.

EJS Entry Points in ME

EJS uses entry points to determine the execution path through the application. An entry point determines which module is initially loaded, an initial route, and an optional layout.

Using the Component Library

The EJS Component Library provides a great deal of built-in functionality that you can use when building your EJS modules. These components are found in the EntradaJS/Components namespace and can be included with a use() statement.

Note: The EJS Component Library is not compatible with the Bootstrap CSS library.
